I've been having a blast in pro clubs. Make your guy 6 foot 7 and put him as a target man striker. Smashing headers all day.

Ok thanks. Am I the only one having problems with the transfer market on PS3? It keeps telling me I have too many players in my transfer list (which is empty), I get server errors, and I just bought some contracts that disappeared and I lost my coins.

It's like that now. Once you get to div 4 it starts to get just as frustrating. I made it to DIV 1 by cheering headers off of Traore.
Excellent, I'm already doing that. I have 2 squads, a Russian league squad and a French national squad. The French players are better, but they don't have the magical McGeady crosses it to Traoré goal button so they're my 2nd choice. Is Hulk worth it for a Russian league side that just cheeses headers?
http://www.futhead.com/14/squads/2229029/ Is there any other obvious upgrade? Other than Hulk they're all cheap.

Speaking of, there's a 2k coin tournament that only requires a few Russian league players that goes for another day. It's only professional level so it's easy cash.

Hulk is definitely worth it if you chose that campaign. I had Danny (who is flat out amazing) Traore (which became a curse word in my house when he wasn't in the box) Honda, Witsel, A French CM who. I can't remember but I think it's d'villa, and hulk. I started out with McGeady but he just failed sometimes. Hulk made that gap a lot better.

Honda is amazing when you can use him, really superior to any other CAM in the Russian league. I'd even say the game to be honest. Can't wait till he moves to Milan.

Real gameplay with PatrickHD for the next gen on xbox. A Full game to boot without skipping cut scenes.

It looks like refs finally have their poo poo together. Also I love love love the new graphics and camera angles with replays.

Not enough to spend 500 bucks on a new system. That'll have to wait a little while.

I have been running this squad http://www.futhead.com/14/squads/1105702/, Costa and Witsel are too good not to use together.

If you don't want to upgrade to Danny on LM, i'd try Wakaso, incredibly strength, Gonzalez is too easy to bump off the ball this year.

And i would say Hulk is definitely worth it, he is impossible to bump off the ball and i have scored some insane long shots with him cutting in from the wing. He can also be had for under 20k these days.

OH SNAP!
Ended up with this for my new bundesliga squad:


Obvious upgrades include reus, Alaba, gotze and maybe lewandowski depending on my coin situation.

I just realized muller has high/high work rates so I'm starting to think blaszcykowski (spelled wrong) is the better choice. I'll give this squad a try though and see what improvements I can make. Would love to hear some opinions on muller vs jakub vs shaqiri though.

Edit: also gotta replace one/both of the CDM's, javi has great stats except for his speed which sucks. Fuchs' stats are really drat good too, considering he's a non rare who sells for discard price it's a steal.

Jakub is wimpy, I'm very dissapointed with him so far. I also hate Luiz Gustavo, the ball constantly bounces off of him.

I like Jakub. He seems to always be in the exact positions I want him to be. He also chips in with a few goals for me too with the deadeye chemistry card.

I was also debating Shaqiri, only because he has 4*skills, vs Jakub and decided to try out Jakub first and he turned out to be pretty good for me.

So, first video is out. I'm not trying to be a youtube superstar, this is something I enjoy doing and have been meaning to do for a while. I should have a few more episodes up within the week. Both squad building, and where I actually go against players etc. If you like it, subscribe and like. If not, tell me why please.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OS6m6LgomA

The only thing I ask, is to give me some ideas or whatever for squads. I currently have 5 to include the one I just did. I'm needing to build one more at least for fitness reasons.

I went for Ya konan instead of Son mainly because of the heading. That and the work rate wasn't ideal. They pretty much go for the same amount, but feel free to replace konan with it. My videos are kind of a guideline. That and I like building squads.

I'm actually starting to enjoy konan a lot. He plays a lot better than I thought he would be.

Futhead. They list them right then and there. Futwiz makes it difficult (at least on their app) to see what traits they have. I still have no idea what one club player does.

I spend my time making squads. Not really min maxing but finding out each player's glaring weakness and/or strengths. Sometimes I come across players like Fuchs that is just amazing. Yet because he is rated 75 he gets looked over, and he isn't the fastest. His free kicks are tasty though. Holy poo poo. The one I included I missed by inches.

Glad to see my video got a positive response. I was thinking the opposite would happen to be honest. I will definitely keep making more.

Next squad is going to be a Russian/Serie A hybrid. Just gathering the footage for it.

If it helps I watched a bit of it and thought it was dumb, plus youre using your stupid Radio voice rather than your normal talking voice.

9200 is not a budget squad to me. That takes around 15 games to get (assuming 400 coins a game plus some additional prizes if you win a league or cup).

Then again I think these kind of videos are dumb as hell, players can play differently based on chemistry and form, just because you like a player doesnt mean I'll enjoy him in the same team.

No, not trolling. You just are more blunt and somewhat volatile from the rest. I've played enough with you to know your sense of humor and etc. It's not that I can't take critique, I just knew that it would have came from your direction. Sorry if it came off like I was accusing you of trying to make me feel bad for "insulting" my video.

Also, 10k isn't too terribly much, but I get what you're saying. And my Radio voice just comes out when I am recording. It happens without me even thinking about it.
